The Wind Blows the Old Dream

Writer Shen Xiazhi sends letters to war correspondent Jiang Chi in early summer every year, and always buries the unsent letters under the old sycamore tree. In the fifth year, news came that Jiang Chi had died in the line of duty. She dug out all the letter boxes in the rain and found that every letter was carefully sealed with transparent tape. It turned out that Jiang Chi secretly read her letters every time he returned to China, but he did not dare to see each other because of his disability. The last letter read: "If you read this, it means that I have turned into moonlight. Please open the window, and the confession I have never said in my life is falling on the new branches of the sycamore tree beside your pillow." The wind blew through the trees and flowers, as if someone whispered: I have never broken a promise.
